Olga's Story
Growing up in high school was really hard for me my parents having such a big family and me being the second to the oldest of 11 kids. So i asked God to give me a good family and i thank him. God has blessed me with a good husband been married for 33 yrs this Nov, and i have 3 great sons 2 daughters in law and 3 grandaughters live well and most of all I have Jesus Christ in the center of my life without him i wouldnt had all this that i do. I love working with endonision students here in California i am like there mom away from home i have love for people and i also care for elderly people i spend so much time making other people happy.Im a happy person my attitude is always possitive in life love to share the Lord with anyone and i also serve the Lord with all my heart.
I was so short that everyone always used to tease me but i loved it i used to be in Jornalism and i remember being in one of our school dances and i walked to go dance and i fall in front of everybody so i left cause i got so embarrased.
Praying and then i start listening to worship music and i feel better.
My biggest hero is my son Vincent i was so sick that i needed help and he called 911 and he saved my life.I will never forget that day.
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Mario Longhurst Pat Yanez, because They were my best friends in school Mario was my buddy guard he used to take care of me and he would always do anything for me and he was the only one my parents trusted him, and Pat well always listened to me and we'd go out even thou we were the same our parents never let us go out so we knew how it felt and Mario was our hero cause her parents trusted him also so he was the one who would take us on our dates with our so called boyfriends..
I have a best friend Ruth we met since we were in 3rd grade we were so poor that in school i didnt have much of anything and we started loving each other and became best of friends and everyday she would give me her lunch that her mom would fix for her cause she knew i dint have food and i always looked forward to that lunch and now we still see each other and we love each other and we share our life and we laugh and cry and pray for one another we even had our class reunion of elementary she knew alot of people but not me.
I always wanted to be a singer when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a great idea. As it turns...Expand for more
out, they were right i sing in my church for the Lord what else can i ask for..
If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have wisdom, faith, and patiences to be able to deal with the day-to-day.
I lived in El Paso Texas for so many yrs.Then my kids started moving one by one to San Jose California as they graduated then my husband and i were by ourselves for a yr. than my husband was dying of high depression that we went thru so much that we moved to California to be close to our kids so here we are 4yrs. later and the Lord healed my husband .So that is why we moved but God had a plan for us. My life hasn't turn out the way i expected my biggest surprise was moving to a very expensive city San Jose Ca. I have learned so much from my kids especially to have dreams and that it's never to late to do things so i am enjoying a good life that God has giving me. my wish is to see my favorite teacher in the whole world, Miss Jabalie she believed in me always my 3rd, grade teacher. for me to truly happy i would want to go to Italy visiting and with my family or me and my husband.
My current age is 51. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be old. I was so completely wrong cause i am that age..
Working hard makes me a better person in life.my career aspirations is to love people.
My first crush was the best ever i thought he was it and that i was going to marry him but boy i was wrong his nothing i would want now.
My best friend would tell you I'm good hearted loving and caring., but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as im ok.
No not at all i think i dress well and in style but in my age range.
Honestly my weirdest job i had was a call center trying to sell physic reading but i only went 1 day got grossed out trying to lie to people.
If i had one do over i would do my hair different.
In 10 years, I hope to be leaving in El Paso. I'm going to get there by coming back..
I would surprise everyone in my reunion by telling them i won the lottery.
My first job was at Thomas hospital, where I got paid 3.25 hr. to 4.00 dlls.. What I remember most about it is working at a gyn department . and i saw so many pregnant women that i said i'd never be pregnant and boy was i wrong..
My child memory i will never forget was singing in a talent show always they used to say i was a Vicky Carr. My old friends remember as having to many brother's and sister's.
